I have a couple of questions. I appreciate the point the Comptroller and Auditor General just made, but I will ask Dr. Quinn about the Department's general oversight of the Microfinance Ireland, MFI, loans. Dr. Quinn said in her opening statement that in the relevant period, especially through the Covid pandemic, Microfinance Ireland supported 1,300 businesses supporting close to 3,000 jobs. From the Department's perspective, how does it monitor the key performance indicators, KPIs, and the performance of Microfinance Ireland? How does all that sit?
